A Qantas Airways flight bound for Brisbane suffered an engine failure after take-off on Friday and circled for a short period of time before returning safely to Sydney Airport, the Australian airline said.

Passengers heard a loud bang from one of the aircraft's two engines, Australian media reported.

The plane’s departure coincided with a grass fire breaking out alongside Sydney Airport's parallel runway that was brought under control by teams from the aviation firefighting rescue service, the airport said in a statement.

Qantas said the plane landed safely after appropriate procedures were conducted, and added it would be investigating the cause of the engine issue.
